FEAST DAY

We are eagerly anticipating our College Feast Day on Friday 13th September. This special day coincides with the birthday of Mary, a figure chosen by God for a unique mission that we joyfully celebrate.  Mary, the Mother of Jesus, stands as a role model for all Christians.

Her unwavering faith and courage, combined with her obedience to God's will, inspire us at St Mary’s. We strive to emulate her determination, conviction, faithfulness, and devotion in our daily lives.  Our Feast Day not only honors Mary but also allows us to reflect on our vibrant school community. It is a time to appreciate the dedication of our students, staff, and families who enrich our school environment and make teaching such a rewarding profession.

Our Feast Day Timetable Students may wear sport uniform, due to the activities of the day.

FIRST EUCHARIST 

Last Wednesday night, the Year 4 Eucharist candidates and their parents gathered at school to begin their Sacramental preparation. They will be celebrating their special day on Sunday 20th October.

Jesus Christ, Bread of Life, travel beside these children as they take

 their final steps in their journey to your table.  Help them recognise you, 

in the words of Holy Scripture, in the Blessed Sacrament,

 in your people, and in themselves.  

Draw these children close to you so they may share your love with others.

Amen
